My workplace barely groks opportunity cost on their main product, and I’m not responsible for the IT. When it breaks constantly, I say “yeah we know it breaks like this, get them to fix it.”

Not my circus, I just stamp the tickets.

What do you use for video calls with screen share?

My coop uses teams and I want to move them off it.

So now my clients will have a harder time engaging with my product. Great.

It will be funny if they try, because plenty of presentation setups will break

5. Implementing a standard means that engineers can specify the use of your product in a generic way instead of directly recommending your product for the use case which could be unethical

So on one hand, yes. On the other hand, there are tasks that are onerous to non technicians.

If you asked me to do it manually, sure. I’ve interacted with a bunch of software, understand measurement systems, done some programming etc.

My wife on the other hand… There’s no overlap between ecology or life sciences in this task. Outside her ability.

Maybe support agent was being lazy, or ignorant.

The portal the agents use should be able to bring up internal info via keywords like “colour registration”

quieter, and uses way less power.

VERY IMPORTANT PAY ATTENTION TO THIS SENTENCE OP

can adapt in the moment if you supply it with the right context

So the disabled have to jump through hoops to interact with the world, great. And can be, meaning somebody has to review what’s being put into this black box instead of just having a person do the task themselves. Instead of a person being qualified for the task, some corp is getting rent from everybody.

Basically you are taking away customer service and providing a booking bot. No thanks.

If we have a people communication method, let them talk to people. If it’s a computer interface, apeing humans is a waste and less accessible than a web form.

How is someone that speaks a different language supposed to translate that voice bot? Wouldn’t it be more simple to translate text on a screen?

What’s the value add pretending?

The AI can’t adapt in the moment. A hotel is not a technology company that can train a model. It won’t be bespoke, so it won’t be following current, local laws.

How is it suited to AI?

Would you rather pay for a limited, energy inefficient and less accessible thing or a real human that can adapt and gain skills, be mentored?

I don’t know why there’s a question here

But what if my human is late or my customers are disabled?

If you spent time giving your employees instructions, you did half the design work for a web form.

There’s videos of real humans talking about this movie

Just make a fucking web form for booking

never taken for granted

In healthy relationships anyway

Yeah I think your inability to turn off notifications is artificial. There’s no reason that these emergency calls can’t go to a landline in a staffed hospital instead of directly to one specific doctor.

If the organization requires this, that’s different from it actually being impossible to do otherwise.

If your hospitals are businesses, you as their employee are subsidising them. They could spend the money on an additional, qualified doctor, but they won’t.

Not really any one, most sectors have office hours, schedules, on-call rotation etc.

It’s unusual to saddle a single person with 24/7 required availability. Do you not have a single colleague you can rotate after hours calls with?

How’s the most expensive healthcare in the world supposed to be a convincing example?

Landfill design is really interesting, and hard drives are very well sealed and aluminum. It would be sitting in a fairly well drained spot, if the seal was not perforated during compaction there’s a good chance the platters are readable.

It’s the most widespread reply all, which if you have worked in an office is the most rub your balls on the face of etiquette move you can do.
